3. When China's "dark horse" is no longer "black"
Li Du, who won the "host curse", lost her normality in the shooting events that needed her normality most, and lost the first gold medal of the "Olympic Games" predicted by everyone. Li Du wept bitterly, even the female reporters interviewed by CCTV broke into tears, and the interview ended in a tearful hug. Watching the news of Phoenix Satellite TV, I said that some viewers left without waiting for the award, and their faces were full of disappointment.
Fortunately, it is not bright here, but it is bright there. Not long after, China's first gold medal fell to Chen Xiexia in the weightlifting hall. She won the 48kg gold medal that China had never won, which made the audience in China who were concerned about the first gold medal relieved.
This is the charm of competitive sports. Nothing is foolproof and hard to predict. The "big name" may miss, and the "dark horse" is always hidden in an unknown corner and suddenly stabbed out, which makes the suspense hang the appetite of all the audience. ...
For the Olympic Games, China was once the biggest "dark horse".
In the distance, Liu Changchun, the hero of China, went to the meeting alone sadly, but came back without any results. At that time, the Olympic Games, who put us in the eye? Later, China, a vast city, could never host the Olympic Games for decades, and fought hard behind closed doors. Apart from a few eye-catching events such as table tennis, there are not many events that can scare outsiders. At that time, China was really a "dark horse" that couldn't be darker. He can only wander around outside the Olympic stadium alone, and he has no ability to run wildly. After Xu Haifeng shot the first gold medal in history for China, China began to make outsiders stunned: in addition to maintaining the traditional advantages of small balls, China people have become "Hercules" with their heads held high in diving, gymnastics and weightlifting; In swimming, track and field and other traditional weaknesses, he became a "dark horse" from time to time and began to pick gold. This "dark horse", which once dominated Asia and took Japan and South Korea as rivals, also began to take aim at sports giants such as the United States and Russia. The Sydney Olympic Games unexpectedly pulled Russia, which was dying of beauty, off the horse. Now, sports fans or gold medal lovers all over the country can't wait to set their sights on the goal of ranking first in the total number of gold medals.
So some people are disappointed with Li Du, not only because the first gold medal fell by the side, but also because their "total number one gold medal" that surpassed Russia already included this brand. "Three dollars a day is the only way to play", and many online forums are keen to calculate this account.
This makes people wonder, is such an accounting-style football game a real sports fan? Do you really appreciate the charm of sports? The first gold fell next to his home. Is it demeaning for the host audience to leave early? Closer to home, this runs counter to the true Olympic spirit.
In the athletic field, we had the "dark horse" era that people despised, but when the "dark horse" is no longer so "black" and when the gold medal is no longer so rare, how should we treat the gold medal? How to treat "first"?
To put it bluntly, China would rather not be the first in the total number of gold medals-it is still a trivial matter to indulge the mentality of "gold medal first". There is a more serious worry that the temporary glory of competitive sports will give Chinese people the illusion of "sports power" and cover up the fact that we are still a sports weak country.
How do you say this? Suppose skyshatter is already the second in the total number of Olympic gold medals How can it still be a weak country in sports?
Yes, in competitive sports, China is getting better and better, but in national sports, we are really lacking. According to the statistics in 2006, the average sports ground in China is1.03m2 (the figure is 0.65 in 1.995). Although it has made progress, it is not as good as a real sports power. Neighboring Japan has long been far behind us in the gold medal list, but the per capita stadium is ten times that of us. Whether it is the proportion of people who participate in moderate and high-intensity sports, or the proportion of people who participate in physical exercise all the year round, the fitness habits of teenagers, etc. In sports, it is difficult for us to compare with developed countries, and some gaps are still very small. ...
In the final analysis, if China becomes a "dark horse" that stands out in the national fitness, it will definitely be more impressive than the first place in the gold medal, and its significance to national rejuvenation is far greater than competitive sports.
After the Olympic dinner, let's see where the sports "dark horse" in China has gone. ...
4. Opportunities for China and the world.
Xinhuanet Beijing, August 9 th Title: Opportunities in China, Opportunities in the World.
Xinhua News Agency reporters Xie Dengke and Chen Yuming
Give China a chance and surprise the world. Colorful night sky, colorful "Bird's Nest" and beautiful performances ... The Olympic movement with a history of more than 2,000 years has developed to a new level in China. The guests and foreign media attending the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympic Games evaluated the opening ceremony with words such as "shock", "magic" and "extraordinary".
The success of the opening ceremony not only indicates the success of the Beijing Olympic Games, but also proves the success of the world's choice of China. As China president Hu Jintao said, the Beijing Olympic Games is not only an opportunity for China, but also an opportunity for the world.
The history of human development is a history in which different nationalities and civilizations learn from each other, learn from each other and integrate with each other. In the development of thousands of years, the Chinese nation has continuously absorbed the nutrients of other national civilizations; Over the past 30 years of reform and opening-up, China has seized the important period of strategic opportunities, constantly expanded and opened up in the wave of economic globalization, and constantly studied and explored.
The Olympic Games is a sports meeting, but it is not only a sports meeting, but also a demonstration of the comprehensive strength of the host country. The process of hosting the Olympic Games itself is a process of all-round learning and improvement. By bidding for and hosting the Olympic Games, China has further broadened its world vision and absorbed rich nutrition from the excellent cultures of all countries in the world. The people of China will become more confident, more tolerant, more scientific and more humane, and the Chinese nation and the ancient oriental civilization will be more vigorously integrated into the world stage.
The Beijing Olympic Games is worth cherishing all over the world, because it is a harmonious dialogue among the world's diverse cultures at a new level. The profound cultural background and unique cultural perspective provide a historical opportunity for the Beijing Olympic Games to carry forward the Olympic spirit and enrich the Olympic connotation. The concept of "Green Olympics, High-tech Olympics and People's Olympics" organically unifies the common goal of all mankind to maintain ecological balance and protect the living environment, and the common ideal of strengthening humanistic care, promoting human progress and creating a better future with China's development concept of people-oriented, scientific development and building a harmonious society, making the Olympic spirit richer and more characteristic of the times.
Today's world is facing both unprecedented development opportunities and unprecedented severe challenges. When people from 204 countries and regions meet in Beijing across the boundaries of regions, nationalities, religions and political systems, people can not only feel the long history and culture of the Chinese nation at close range, but also feel a warm, open, authentic and credible China, and realize that the world we live in has never needed mutual understanding, tolerance and cooperation as it is today. Taking the Beijing Olympic Games as an opportunity to enhance understanding and deepen friendship among people all over the world is the core of the Olympic spirit and the common need of China and the world.
5. Unlucky Li Du and lucky Li Du.
Xinhuanet Beijing, August 9 th: Olympic theme: unlucky Li Du, lucky Li Du
Xinhua News Agency reporter Shen Nan
The defending champion failed to win the medal, and Li Du was unlucky today. But Li Du is very lucky today, because she has caught up with an era when the whole society's understanding of gold medals is more and more comprehensive, thorough and inclusive, so Li Du doesn't have to go to Lacrimosa.
Twenty-four years ago, 26-year-old Xu Haifeng won the first Olympic gold medal for New China in Los Angeles, but now his successor, Li Du, who is also 26 years old, failed to let the Beijing Olympic Games take the lead in playing the national anthem for the China champion in the ardent expectation of the Chinese people. Xu Haifeng has since become an iconic figure in sports in China, but Li Du, who was in tears, has not become a "sinner" today. She won sincere hugs from many people.
Today, people shouted "Come on Li Du" from all directions. When Ka Emmons won the first place in Beijing by breaking the Olympic record, the audience gave warm applause and applause to this beautiful Czech girl.
The centennial Olympic Games has finally come true. For China people who pay attention to "getting off to a good start" and "winning prizes", the opening of the Beijing Olympic Games must be imperfect, but the essence of the Olympic Games is impermanence and fair competition. Today, emmons, Li Du and the audience gave them applause. * * * interprets and promotes the Olympic spirit.
The 24 years from Xu Haifeng to Li Du, spanning two generations, is the golden period of China's reform and opening up, the 24 years that China has caught up with the world, and the 24 years that the Chinese nation has gradually understood the true meaning of the Olympic Movement from its touch and participation.
The Olympic Movement, which was born in ancient Greece, created the most equal stage in human history. No matter the city-state aristocrats or the people at the bottom, they have no identity and status. The olive branch of the hero belongs only to the strong in the arena. Such a stage is exactly what a nation that has just opened its doors to the outside world urgently needs.
1984, when the China Olympic team went to Los Angeles, most people didn't know what Hamburg was, nor did their relatives and friends in China know about the live TV broadcast. Even television is a luxury. Under such a special background, Xu Haifeng's gold medal has become an eternal symbol, a symbol of the awakening of the Oriental Dragon. The Chinese nation recovered its lost dignity from this gold medal and found its ambition and fighting spirit to stand on its own feet in the world. The significance of Olympic gold medals and Olympic champions in the eyes of Kim Jae Jung people has gone far beyond the Olympic Games and sports itself and become a symbol of national rejuvenation.
Thus, when the 1988 Olympic Games opened in Seoul, China people's yearning for Olympic gold medals changed from four years ago. This enthusiasm quickly turned into disappointment and anger after China's defeat, which highlighted people's one-sided and superficial understanding of sports and the Olympics at that time.
From the day Beijing won the right to host the 29th Olympic Games, China and the world, China culture and western civilization collided with each other in unprecedented breadth and depth. Organizing for the Olympic Games has not only contributed to another climax of construction, but also accelerated the process of China's social modernization-the understanding and practice of the Olympic concept that "participation is important" is gradually deepening, the inclusiveness and diversity of society are increasingly enhanced, individual will is increasingly respected, and citizens' civic awareness is gradually enhanced. China in 2008 is more open and confident than ever before.
For ordinary people in China, in the past seven years, they have discovered the other side of the Olympic Games besides fierce competition-a big gathering all over the world, a platform for people of different languages and colors to communicate with each other, enhance understanding and establish friendship, and a big stage where any ordinary people can participate. More and more people in China still expect China athletes to win gold medals and silver medals, but they are even more proud that Beijing has become the central stage of world cultural exchanges.
Without the experience of organizing and hosting the Olympic Games, maybe China people will wander outside the gate of the Olympic core for a long time. The Olympic Games brought China not only the shell of modernization, but also the connotation of the Olympic spirit. From Xu Haifeng winning the unplanned gold medal to Li Du losing the planned gold medal, this clue actually reflects the prosperity of China sports and China society, not the weakness, and also shows the great leap of China people's humanistic concept.
